Welcome to Trinity Bight
Dunfield
Renamed in 1913, the present day Dunfield was once the community of Cuckold's
Cove. Today the houses border along the shoreline, surrounded by lush green
hills. Whether you drive or travel by foot, visit the United Church of the Good
Shepherd. Continue on to "Island Cove," the farthest point in Dunfield, for a
view of the bay where magnificent icebergs can be seen.
Travel the only roadway en route to Historic Fort Point and walk the wide and
woody trail from Maggoty Cove to Coleman's Point. It was here in Maggoty Cove a
whale factory prospered from 1903-1915. Today, only parts of a concrete
foundation remain.
A large stretch of green meadow slopes down to a jagged and rocky beach
overlooking Green Island Tickle. The ocean stretches out to Bonaventure Head,
Stone Island, Little Stone Island and beyond.
Bring along your binoculars and
look out to Green Island, nesting grounds to view a wide variety of local and
migrating marine birds, such as the Kittiwake, Artic and Common Tern, and the
Guillemot. The point offers an excellent picnic and camping area.
